Carry out assembling to make the recessed bar portion 51 of torsion beam 5 cover rear-swing arm 6 beam junction surface 6a and by recessed bar portion 51 and beam junction surface 6a superimposed, and make the end face 53a on the axis direction of the outstanding edge 53 of torsion beam 5 be connected to the end face 69a of the outstanding edge 69 of rear-swing arm 6.
Be configured to the wall portion 67a of the 6a end, beam junction surface curve 52 top of torsion beam 5 being butted up against rear-swing arm 6.As shown in (a) of Figure 11, between the wall portion 67a and curve 52 top of torsion beam 5 of the 6a end, beam junction surface of rear-swing arm 6, be provided with gap g1.In addition, between the beam junction surface 6a and the wall of torsion beam 5 of rear-swing arm 6, gap g2 is also formed with.
Then, the wall portion 67a as engaging portion near the recess 67 of the beam junction surface 6a of edge, the top 5a of torsion beam 5 and rear-swing arm 6 is welded (w1).In addition, meanwhile, the internal face 5b of edge, the top 65a of beam junction surface 6a and the curve 52 of torsion beam 5 is welded (w3).So, the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6 and the curve 52 of torsion beam 5 weld in two place's parts, therefore, it is possible to obtain enough rigidity.On the other hand, at the terminal part of the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6, and be that the bottom of interrupting at edge, top 65a is provided with outstanding edge 69, therefore, be connected to the end face 69a of outstanding edge 69 by the end face 53a on the axis direction of the outstanding edge 53 of torsion beam 5 thus locking, location can be realized.Thus, be connected to the wall portion 67a of 6a end, beam junction surface of rear-swing arm 6 on curve 52 top of torsion beam 5 before, end face 53a on the axis direction of the outstanding edge 53 of torsion beam 5 is connected to the end face 69a of outstanding edge 69, between curve 52 top and wall portion 67a of torsion beam 5, form gap g1.
Then, the end face 53a of the end face 69a of the outstanding edge 69 of rear-swing arm 6 and the outstanding edge 53 of torsion beam 5 is docked and carries out welded joint (w2).
By being set to this connected structure, go the sectional area of rear-swing arm 6 to diminish gradually along with from rear-swing arm 6 towards torsion beam 5, therefore, the rigidity of rear-swing arm 6 side engagement portion reduces.Its result, can suppress the stiffness change sharply of rear-swing arm 6 and beam junction surface 6a, can realize relaxing stress and concentrate.Owing to making the above-below direction same length of rear-swing arm 6 and beam junction surface 6a, therefore, it is possible to suppress the stiffness change at junction surface, relax stress and concentrate.When have input above-below direction load to torsion beam 5, the stress produced at weld part and the beam junction surface 6a of vehicle front side can be made to concentrate separately, become the countermeasure that reply is damaged.
According to above-mentioned 1st embodiment, in the terminal part of the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6, and be that the bottom of interrupting at edge, top 65a is provided with outstanding edge 69, therefore, be connected to the end face 69a of outstanding edge 69 by the end face 53a on the axis direction of the outstanding edge 53 of torsion beam 5 and locking, thus location can be realized.And, due to the outstanding edge 69 of rear-swing arm 6 and the outstanding edge 53 of torsion beam 5 are docked and are carried out welded joint, therefore, it is possible to realize the location on axis direction.
Because the length on the projected direction of the outstanding edge 69 of described rear-swing arm 6 and the outstanding edge 53 of described torsion beam 5 is set to roughly the same, i.e. L1=L2, therefore the stage portion between rear-swing arm 6 and torsion beam 5 disappears, therefore, it is possible to the stress relaxing weld part is concentrated.Easily carry out rear-swing arm 6 and the contraposition of torsion beam 5 on vehicle body above-below direction.
Owing to the thickness of the outstanding edge 69 of described rear-swing arm 6 and the outstanding edge 53 of described torsion beam 5 to be set as roughly the same, i.e. m1=m2, the stage portion therefore between rear-swing arm 6 and torsion beam 5 disappears, therefore, it is possible to the stress relaxing weld part is concentrated.
The datum line BL extended relative to the length direction along described torsion beam 5 due to the blank area 13 between described rear-swing arm 6 and described torsion beam 5 tilts, therefore, it is possible to extend junction surface, and it is concentrated to relax stress.
For the sloping portion of the blank area 13 of described rear-swing arm 6, compared with the part leaning on open side of this sloping portion, the part by non-open side of this sloping portion is arranged on the vehicle body center side on the length direction of described torsion beam 5, therefore, stiffness change sharply can be suppressed, stress can be relaxed and concentrate.
Owing to by the length setting in the short transverse from the non-open side of blank area 13 towards the length the short transverse of open side and described torsion beam 5 of described rear-swing arm 6 being roughly the same, i.e. H1=H2, therefore, stiffness change sharply can be suppressed, stress can be relaxed and concentrate.Owing to junction surface can be welded on complete cycle, therefore can not produce the boundary between weld part and non-weld part, concentrate therefore, it is possible to relax stress.
Due near described first junction surface, be provided with gap g2 between described rear-swing arm 6 and described torsion beam 5, therefore, weld time produce gas be easy to escape from, can suppress produce rack of fusion.Also abnormal noise can be prevented when being out of shape at applied load.
Owing to being provided with gap g1 between the wall portion 67a as engaging portion and the end face 5a of described torsion beam 5 of described first junction surface, described rear-swing arm 6, therefore, the gas produced when welding is easy to escape from, and can suppress to produce rack of fusion.
Owing to being welded by complete cycle between the wall portion 67a as engaging portion of described first junction surface, described rear-swing arm 6 and the end face 5a of described torsion beam 5, the boundary between weld part and non-weld part disappears, and concentrates therefore, it is possible to relax stress.
Owing to being soldered around the edge, top of the connector portions of described rear-swing arm 6 and between the inner wall of described torsion beam 5, therefore, the end face 5a of torsion beam 5 can not only be engaged, also can engage the top ends of rear-swing arm 6, therefore, it is possible to have the joint of both direction.
By reducing the stiffness change of the junction surface w3 of swing arm rearward 6 end side between torsion beam 5 and the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6, the stress that can relax junction surface is concentrated.
In addition, by being engaged in the position that rigidity is higher by the junction surface w1 by torsion beam 5 end side between torsion beam 5 and the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6, the stress that can relax junction surface is concentrated.
Further, owing to the welding direction between torsion beam 5 and the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6 can be set to direction of tilt and this both direction of above-below direction, therefore, it is possible to the load of the direction of delaminate suppressing strength of joint more weak, strength of joint can be improved.
Because junction surface w1, w2, the w3 between torsion beam 5 and the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6 can carry out complete cycle welding, therefore, the boundary between weld part and non-weld part can not be produced, stress can be suppressed to concentrate.
Because junction surface w1, the w2 between torsion beam 5 and the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6 does not have diff-H at the outside face of torsion beam 5 radial direction, concentrate therefore, it is possible to relax stress.
Due to rear-swing arm 6 is set to hollow section, therefore, need core rod when casting, but by the rear-swing arm 6 side providing holes between torsion beam 5 and the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6, core rod stably can be supported with the hole of cradle portion with 2 in this hole.
By the cross section of torsion beam 5 is set to open cross-sections, the vehicle not needing so high torsional rigid can be tackled.
Figure 12 and Figure 13 represents the connector portions between the torsion beam of the twist-beam suspension of the 2nd embodiment of the present invention and rear-swing arm, marks identical Reference numeral to the part identical with Fig. 7.
In the present embodiment, the recess 67 of the upper surface side of the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6 is formed with open pore 68B.
At the end of the welding of complete cycle welding, gas can be made to escape from via this open pore 68B, improve the quality of weld part.Due to torsion beam 5 the area of the beam junction surface 6a of rear-swing arm 6 that is fitted together to diminish, therefore, it is possible to make torsion beam 5 lightweight, and, the possibility that rear-swing arm 6 contacts with torsion beam 5 when torsion beam 5 is out of shape becomes quite low, can suppress by contacting the abnormal noise caused.The size and shape of open pore 68B can be utilized to regulate the rigidity of fitting portion, thus stiffness change sharply can be suppressed.By utilizing open pore 68B to engage rear-swing arm 6 and torsion beam 5, junction surface can be strengthened.Two faces of torsion beam 5 contact with extraneous air, thus thermal diffusivity is improved, and can suppress the heat affecting configuring nigh noise silencer 14 as shown in Figure 14.
utilizability in industry
In addition, the present invention is not limited to above-mentioned embodiment, and the joint between rear-swing arm 6 and torsion beam 5 adopts FSW (friction stir joint) and do not adopt welding, thus the strength of material that can obtain weld part reduces the less good joint of degree.In addition, in the scope not changing technical scope of the present invention, suitably can change that to carry out enforcement be self-evident.
